Yoshi, i have to agree with you, it is porven that AMd is better at gfx than it pentim rival, but only a bit, my local mag did it with a 2 comps, a p4 2 and a AMD 2200+ (the 2200 only runns at 2000)
with gf4 ti 4200 and 512 pc133 ram, and pentium come out with 327 and amd with 352, which seems like a lot, but to a average gamer, isnt much

I would change the cooling system Bu-Fu, water cooling is old technology, refrigerated cooling is in now, this is what you want Prometeia .

The advantage the Athlon's have is in the floating point unit, also if you're going AMD you should get dual channel Motherboard with DDR400, maybe the Asus A7N8X with Nforce2 chipset. Apart from that your choices seem sound.
